§ 45. Sir G. Sinclairasked the Secretary of State for the Home Department how many of the following immigrant doctors issued with B vouchers in 1966 have come here to secure higher qualifications and specialist experience with a firm intention of returning to serve in their own countries, namely, from Ceylon 59, from India 1511, for Pakistan 282; and if he will classify these as students and remove them from the quota reserved for immigrants intending to settle here.
§ Mr. EnnalsI regret that the information asked for in the first part of the Question is not available. Doctors whose primary purpose is to follow courses of study, including post-graduate courses, are already admitted as students, without limit of number, for the period of their studies; vouchers are needed only by those who come for employment initially or wish to be free to remain here and take employment after completing their studies.
